OKAY So Manila Philippines Is NOT What I Expected???

[@dannynicart2389]

Just keep providing a fair and unbiased evaluation of the Philippines, and I'm sure you'll reach your goal of a million subscribers. Power on my compatriot!

[@josiah5776]

All the naysayers in the USA gave me all the same "warnings" when I expatriated to the Philippines. All of them were wrong, in their arrogant assumption that they knew all about a place on the other side of the planet that they have never seen. I live in the province, but still prefer it to the West.

[@thadeubalongag8111]

Well done, Brian. Thanks for sharing your experiences in the Philippines. Visit the provinces and feature other spots. You will be amazed at how beautiful the islands are. Enjoy your stay here.

[@uchniezt1212]

BGC is not in Manila. Stop patronizing entitled white men who feel no need to respect the country they visit by naming their locations properly.

[@tungsteen31]

You will have a million subscribers soon brother.

[@piacash5216]

It’s a long way to go …. But I hope he gets it Soon 🙏🙏🙏

[@uchniezt1212]

Hopefully not. For a "travel vlogger" it's stupid that he calls everything "manila" just because he is walking on concrete. "Manila" refers only to that small city at the west coast of the NCR. Everything beyond it is not manila anymore. For example, BGC is not in Manila. It's in TAGUIG.

[@asianearthdweller]

you’ll definitely see more developments happening in different areas of Manila and even outside the metro! Philippines has become one of the fastest growing economies in the Pacific region!

[@piacash5216]

I Hope They Hide All that impoverished Areas in Manila… Like in Japan they are good of Hiding the Poor Citizens…. I Watch DREW BINSKY Videos Documentary in Japan A month ago Very good video..

[@deeN31841]

Great vlog Mr Brian! Goal for a million subscribers & millions of viewers. Good Luck💰💰💰

[@uchniezt1212]

Tell him to stop calling everything "Manila" just because he is walking on concrete. "Manila" refers only to that small but historic capital city at the west coast of the NCR. Everything beyond it is NOT manila anymore. For example, BGC is NOT in manila. It's in TAGUIG.... BGC, TAGUIG.

[@renpinero3171]

I feel like not watching your vlogs anymore because you make me miss more and more BGC. I stayed there in Uptown for almost 2 weeks last year and I freaking love it!! The ambience, surroundings, restos, cafes, shops and events are aplenty!

[@uchniezt1212]

Stop watching a stupid white man who keeps calling everything "Manila" just because he is walking on concrete.

[@Gregory-Masovutch]

We live near Tagaytay. Manila it all depends where you are at. However for the most part, from Okada, Binondo, Divisoria, Pasay, MOA, Ayala Manila Bay & One, Glorietta, Makati & Taguig SM Auora/Market Market, it’s decent. Even BACLARAN and the seafood wet markets Palenke are worth the visit.

[@uchniezt1212]

Okada is not in Manila. It's in Paranaque. Pasay is Pasay, It is a city on its own. It is NOT in Manila. MOA is not in Manila. It's in Pasay. Ayala Manila Bay is not in Manila. It's in Paranaque. Glorietta Makati is not in Manila. It's in a Makati -- a city on its own. Taguig is Taguig. It is a city on its own. It is not in Manila. SM Aura and Market Market are NOT in Manila. They're both in Taguig. Know your geography. NCR (formerly, "Metro Manila") is a region. "Manila" is just one of many cities in it.

[@leoavila5002]

Love your ramblings. I'm living in Canada and will visit next year. Hope to cross paths with you and coffee or beer is on me. I'm Filipino and you have inspired me to spend more time over there. Home for me will still be here because of my kids. Enjoy your stay! Don't think too much about negative opinions. Everyone is entitled to one.

[@bluemagic7732]

Been binging your videos. Your monologues are pretty good. Keep it up, brad.

[@jayha7071]

I live in Phillipines permanently. Ive been back and forth seven times, all on philippine airlines. The attendants are warm and friendly and very accomodating. I think the most i ever paid was 1300 round trip, me and my wife. I couldn't imagine doing it on an american carrier. Oh, and one other thing, 90 percent of the passengers are filipino, no rude or entitled Americans

[@vilmajones7877]

Keep up the good work!

[@jimmycadena2708]

BGC is just one of the grand plan to fully develop our greater Manila. Just take C5 and you will find several sprouting mini cities. Those will be the staples of metro manila in a not so distant future. Meanwhile, those in the 1st world are trying to survive daily under a chaotic environment. Sad but true ❤

BGC is not all of Manila, or the Philippines for that matter but thank you for appreciating our country despite its flaws.

Yeah those FIRST 8 WORDS. But sadly many blokes will see this and just think that anywhere they head in the Philippines is going to be like this and that is laughable.....until its not.

Enough for wandering around BGC over and over again. Try to explore other must have places like EastWood City, Bridgetowne, Ortigas City, Aseana City, Vertis North, Rockwell, Filinvest City, Nuvali, etc.

[@uchniezt1212]

And also he should really stop assuming he is in Manila just because he is walking on concrete. BGC is not in Manila. It's in Taguig.

[@tyroneaquino9552]

Just in Portland 2 weeks Ago Not Different From Here in Los Angeles, So many Homeless in the Waterfront…. But I love the City Train and Bus System ✌️✌️✌️

[@tyroneaquino9552]

@@piacash5216 honestly there is not much to do here, downtown is normally dead, no sight seeing, or new developments. But the outdoor scene is what makes it beautiful. I never use public transit bc it’s way too slow, smells like piss, and occasionally a crazy person riding it.

[@kalebgonzales4009]

That's BGC, that is just a small piece of CBD that's well developed and it's expensive there. Next to it are hinterlands around Taguig. Philippines is still 3rd world. The economy maybe rising but it does not benefit the lower case as much. Go to Tondo, or harbor areas. It's tougher there.

[@michaelwhatley7907]

Exactly. He's just not TOALLY honest, even though I enjoy his videos a lot. Im in VIETNAM now for about a year and am returning to Philippines, BGC but this is after 10 years of Philippines, I KNOW the difference but others will not. He makes it seem that the bad stuff he was told does not exist and that is a horrible assumption for anyone to think or believe.

[@judydelapena4818]

I hope everyone stop saying we're still a 3rd world country, we're a developing country start believing in that.

[@mel_arquiza]

"It's been a great YT video Brian this is truly what Filipinos life for a vibrant city highlights that everyone are welcome with there hospitalities knowing the very least to the very highest you cannot find anything like it if you win the hearts and the spirits of the true Filipinos."

BGC is really amazing

[@michaelwhatley7907]

These videos are beyond excellent and very creative and yet they are NOT the full story. THE TRUTH is both views of the Philippines are very right. DUMAGUETE IS NOT BGC. For those watching he is speaking of ONE AREA ,BGC. All the bad stuff you said people told you DOES EXIST IN MANY AREAS OF THE PHILIPPINES. IM 60 didn't just get here yesterday and start a channel; been at it over 10 years and have lived and experienced the good the bad and the ugly and it ALL exist in Philippines. Personally I wished I had of gone to BGC OR EVEN CEBU over DUMAGUETE were I spend 4 years. Just did a stint in DAVAO for four months and it was very nice, but I have also lived on SIQUIJOR,SIBULAN and other places that DO NOT in a million years resemble BGC. So yeah, we see what you are doing and you are correct...ABOUT BGC but BGC IS NOT the whole story of the Philippines. Just give a real honest showing. But if you landed there THAT IS ALL YOU KNOW; does not mean the bad and the ugly does not exist because it certainly does. It does not mean that everyone else lied to you about the Philippines. American just kidnapped and killed, in a place that was not BGC, BUT IN PHILIPPINES but thats where HE landed.

[@badzchannel2824]

Enjoy our Pilipinas my Home Country❤ 🇵🇭my suggestion for you is, to leave the Politics from us, foreigners will never understand our Politics its deep & not for Foreigners😁

[@michaelwhatley7907]

Leave ALL the politics alone. You just alienate people when you don't. We are here for the thumbnail, not politics in Philippines or digs at those in your home country. IM TRUMP ALL DAY but I still dont want to hear digs about Harris that are actually borderline racist.

[@aydolnunguna7612]

Always be careful though with those grab and cash people.

[@jhovenell]

That is not Manila.. 🙂 That is Taguig City. Go to Quiapo, Tondo, Divisoria - That is Manila

[@GerardRaymondPanado-ig2up]

Not just BGC but other places like eastwood, rockwell, makati etc. Even the poor sites of the ph are happy compared to the rich cities of developed countries. Misconceptions by the media gave my country this bad rep but only for the ignorant ones.

[@Trolololitarian_RepubLICK]

Haha! Cackling kamala! TRUMALA FOR THE WIN!

With all due respect-leave BGC to see the third world that your friends are talking about.

[@jayha7071]

When i moved here 21 months ago, marcos went to the US. I was so pissed, i wanted to get out of America and its warmongering ways. Duterte had the right foreign policy. Henry kissinger once said, to be an enemy of the US is troublesome, to be a friend is deadly

[@Kardsman]

As an expat who has lived in Manila for two years, this video kinda like going to South Africa, staying in white gated community and telling the world how safe all of South Africa is. Manila is a city of disparity with lots poverty and like every Capital city, has plenty of crime. If you are going to post vlogs, show both sides of the story….film the poor areas too as a contrast!

[@Brian_The_Lion]

I enjoy filming where I live (BGC). Not sure what's wrong with that 🤷‍♀️

[@uchniezt1212]

For starters, this video is not in Manila at all. This video is WRONG -- just like all of his "Manila" videos. They are all WRONG.

Filipino here. I'll say this about US Politics. Ever since Biden got into office, regional wars have been springing up all over the world, food prices have risen ~170%, Gas, etc. We like Trump because he embodies the values that matter to us: he's nice to nice people, rewards hard work, points out issues straight and he raised his kids into fine people.

i'm sure you have subscribers on both ends of the political spectrums, so maybe leave the political digs out and stick to what you do. You have a fantastic channel and I just binged watched at least 4 but the political dig really turn me off. Like Michael Jordan said when they tried to get him to get political; REPUBLICANS BY SHOES TOO. All watch your channel too. Just do the Philippines tuff which is pretty good.
